@jani @laho Yeah I've read that article and that is a valid argument bring up here. Not dismissing the concern but there's too many unknowns to say anything conclusive (even how much there is risk that anything in status quo would change).

Probably Greenland situation could play a role here but in that how Linux development will continue is least of my concern to be honest. In sensitive matters it is better to really consider before you open your mouth. It's not ignorance or self-protection but instead it is about making sure that you don't spread any more FUD than there already is on Internet...

To be crystal-clear: diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility are core Fedora Project values.

Finally, I don't like aerc's manual (which does not exist). You end up searching stuff from Internet.

mutt's manual: http://www.mutt.org/doc/manual.txt

I switched back to mutt from aerc after two or something, and it was a good decision. Two or something years of using aerc made me more ineffective. I used mutt since 1999 before trying out aerc.

- Multi-account is counter-productive over "mutt -e "source ~/.mutt/kernel.muttrc", if you use subaddress extension for multiple email addresses (RFC 5233). I often e.g. send to LKML from wrong email address.
- Mutt has more effective search and filtering out of the box with no external programs required.
- Less confusing configuration. It's raw and simple.
- User-defined headers (my_hdr).
- Having a terminal is a disadvantage because I neither need it or want it.
- The source code of aerc is alien to me because I don't use Go. In mutt I can directly read from the source code what it does.

This has been grown for some time but it requires always a bit of effort to switch.

FOSDEM kind of pushed me to finally do it because I have no respect on Drew DaVault's recent actions but it does not root to that (as you can see above) :-)

@laho Personally, I'd be more pro-actively concerned about CSAM in EU if anything. It's a world full of risk factors ;-) If there was anything related to non-profits with HQ in US ever that would not be specifically for LF. It is just one of many. It's speculative as hell risk factor tbh. Not something I'd spend energy on thinking.

@laho not making a statement or expressing an opinion so I'll pass :-) It is just smart thing to do since it is not wise to travel instable countries.

And I don't know about US legislation on non-profit organizations so would not make sense to speculate anyhow.

I only express my opinion in social media, if I can go to a court hearing and fully disclose the facts.

Just for the sake of example, in the case of FOSDEM I was vocal because:

1. Organizers had all information available on Jack Dorsey when they accepted the talk.
2. No new evidence has been disclosed that would compromise Jack Dorsey after that.

For example, it has been a known fact that Jack sold his shares to Elon Musk for the last couple of years already. Even if I hated Jack by gut I still would think that it was wrong doing because I defend integrity over my personal feelings about a person.

Objectively you can draw only two possible scenarios from this:

1. FOSDEM organizers are incompetent as fuck.
2. FOSDEM organizers have no integrity.

Both are quite unpleasant outcomes, but either of them must be 100% true, and I can't help it.

However, if I said anything about non-profit organizations in US, exports and related legislation that would be based purely on a belief system. It also comes down to the question of integrity: if I cross that line I will loose it.

At least when it comes to bigger possible issues. Everybody has their ups and downs, and talks nonsense sometimes. That's just life.

One thing is sure: not travelling to US during this term for any reason. Too much chaos and mayhem. Should be listed high-risk countries to travel into.

I remember 2024 from this figure rather than economy figures ;-)

Noteworthy and exciting is the fact that 2024 bar is significantly higher than 2018 bar. Probably by the end of this year it is at minimum two times 2018 metrics.

I salute to this one (not Musk salute tho).

Promoted GSoC in Finnish because it is factors better investment for future than a regular summer job or some nonsense like that:

Google is doing the right thing with this and giving back IMHO. Credit given where it is due ;-)

definitely not going to comment to the LWN FOSDEM article :-) i said what i wanted on topic and used my freedom of speech... not the end of the world.

julia is cool i use it as my calculator but it is somewhat unstable still (saw the article in LWN).

I like to be more hobbyist kernel developer and maintainer than professional kernel developer and maintainer :-)

I made the right call for me of not going to a Linux company after my industry sabbatical.

Not discussing about it further :-) People can go nuts.
